Types of Industrial Valves & Their Functions:
In industrial piping systems, valves play a crucial role in controlling, stopping, or regulating fluid flow. Whether used in factories, clean water installations, HVAC systems, or oil refineries, choosing the right valve ensures operational efficiency and safety.
What is a Valve?
A valve is a mechanical component installed in piping lines to control direction, pressure, and flow of fluids (gas, liquid, steam, or slurry). Valves can be operated manually, pneumatically, hydraulically, or electrically.
Common Types of Valves
Gate Valve
Function: Fully open or fully stop the flow
Commonly used in: Water supply and irrigation systems
Ball Valve
Function: Flow control using a rotating ball
Advantage: High-pressure resistance, quick open/close
Globe Valve
Function: Regulates flow rate
Used in: HVAC systems, cooling, and boilers
Check Valve (Non-Return Valve)
Function: Prevents backflow
Installed in: Pumps and vertical lines
Butterfly Valve
Function: Regulates and shuts off flow with a rotating disc
Advantage: Lightweight and space-saving
Pressure Relief Valve (PRV)
Function: Prevents overpressure in the system
Common in: Heating systems, pressure tanks
Common Valve Materials
Cast Iron / Ductile Iron – For clean water & sewage
Carbon Steel – For high-pressure or chemical fluids
Stainless Steel – Corrosion resistant, for food & pharmaceutical
Brass/Bronze – Common for household plumbing
